Question

Is it possible to have quickbooks pay my federal taxes from a different bank account than it is paying payroll through?

When I have commissions come in, I move 25% over to another account that I use for tax obligations. I want payroll to keep pulling from my main account but would like quickbooks to pay my tax obligations through a separate account.

Hello, realtorjenniferw.

 

It isn't possible to have a separate bank account for payroll and tax payments. The funds can only be withdrawn from one bank account in the United States. Please review this article for more details: Change your payroll bank account.

 

As a workaround, you can turn off the automatic tax payments and forms filings feature. Then, you may consider paying taxes outside QuickBooks. This way, you have control over which bank you want to use for your tax payments.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Settings ⚙, then Payroll Settings.
  2. In the Taxes and forms section, click the Edit pencil icon.
  3. Clear the Automate taxes and forms checkbox.
  4. Select I'll pay and file the right agencies through their website or by mail.
  5. Hit Save.

 

You may also run a variety of payroll reports to see information about your business and employees.

 

Please let me know if you have further questions about managing tax payments. I'll be around to assist you.
